evm: Enforce signatures version 3 with new EVM policy 'bit 3'

2026-04-01T14:16:53Z

Enable the configuration of EVM so that it requires that asymmetric signatures it accepts are of version 3 (sigv3). To enable this, introduce bit 3 (value 0x0008) that the user may write to EVM's securityfs policy configuration file 'evm' for sigv3 enforcement. Mention bit 3 in the documentation.

ima: Define asymmetric_verify_v3() to verify IMA sigv3 signatures

2026-04-01T14:14:30Z

Define asymmetric_verify_v3() to calculate the hash of the struct ima_file_id, before calling asymmetric_verify() to verify the signature. Move and update the existing calc_file_id_hash() function with a simpler, self contained version. In addition to the existing hash data and hash data length arguments, also pass the hash algorithm.

EVM: add comment describing why ino field is still unsigned long

2026-03-17T14:38:49Z

Mimi pointed out that we didn't widen the inode number field in struct h_misc alongside the inode->i_ino widening. While we could make an equivalent change there, that would require EVM resigning on all 32-bit hosts. Instead, leave the field as an unsigned long. This should have no effect on 64-bit hosts, and allow things to continue working on 32-bit hosts in the cases where the i_ino fits in 32-bits. Add a comment explaining why it's being left as unsigned long.

evm: fix security.evm for a file with IMA signature

2026-03-05T16:39:39Z

When both IMA and EVM fix modes are enabled, accessing a file with IMA signature but missing EVM HMAC won't cause security.evm to be fixed. Add a function evm_fix_hmac which will be explicitly called to fix EVM HMAC for this case. Suggested-by: Mimi Zohar Signed-off-by: Coiby Xu Signed-off-by: Mimi Zohar

evm: Don't enable fix mode when secure boot is enabled

treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types

2026-02-21T09:02:28Z

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union object instances: Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...) Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...) Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...) (where TYPE may also be *VAR) The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning "TYPE *". Signed-off-by: Kees Cook

evm: Use ordered xattrs list to calculate HMAC in evm_init_hmac()

2026-01-23T19:31:41Z

Commit 8e5d9f916a96 ("smack: deduplicate xattr setting in smack_inode_init_security()") introduced xattr_dupval() to simplify setting the xattrs to be provided by the SMACK LSM on inode creation, in the smack_inode_init_security(). Unfortunately, moving lsm_get_xattr_slot() caused the SMACK64TRANSMUTE xattr be added in the array of new xattrs before SMACK64. This causes the HMAC of xattrs calculated by evm_init_hmac() for new files to diverge from the one calculated by both evm_calc_hmac_or_hash() and evmctl. evm_init_hmac() calculates the HMAC of the xattrs of new files based on the order LSMs provide them, while evm_calc_hmac_or_hash() and evmctl calculate the HMAC based on an ordered xattrs list. Fix the issue by making evm_init_hmac() calculate the HMAC of new files based on the ordered xattrs list too.
